Local spin density

As before, we note that the resonance frequency of a nucleus at position r is directly proportional to the combined applied static and gradient fields at that location. In a gradient G=G u, orthogonal to the slice selection gradient, the nuclei precess (in the usual frame rotating at coq) at a frequency ciD=y The observed signal therefore contains a component at this frequency witli an amplitude proportional to the local spin density. The total signal is of the fomi... [Pg.1524]

Local spin density functional theory (LSDFT) is an extension of regular DFT in the same way that restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock extensions were developed to deal with systems containing unpaired electrons. In this theory both the electron density and the spin density are fundamental quantities with the net spin density being the difference between the density of up-spin and down-spin electrons ... [Pg.149]

The simplest approximation to the complete problem is one based only on the electron density, called a local density approximation (LDA). For high-spin systems, this is called the local spin density approximation (LSDA). LDA calculations have been widely used for band structure calculations. Their performance is less impressive for molecular calculations, where both qualitative and quantitative errors are encountered. For example, bonds tend to be too short and too strong. In recent years, LDA, LSDA, and VWN (the Vosko, Wilks, and Nusair functional) have become synonymous in the literature. [Pg.43]

Local exchange and correlation functionals involve only the values of the electron spin densities. Slater and Xa are well-known local exchange functionals, and the local spin density treatment of Vosko, Wilk and Nusair (VWN) is a widely-used local correlation functional. [Pg.119]

In the more general case, where the a and p densities are not equal, LDA (where the sum of the a and p densities is raised to the 4/3 power) has been virtually abandoned and replaced by the Local Spin Density Approximation (LSDA) (which is given as the sum of die individual densities raised to the 4/3 power, eq. (6.17)). [Pg.183]

Nonlocal density gradient corrections (GC)-local spin density (LDA) approximation. [Pg.23]

We have used the multisublattice generalization of the coherent potential approximation (CPA) in conjunction with the Linear-MufRn-Tin-Orbital (LMTO) method in the atomic sphere approximation (ASA). The LMTO-ASA is based on the work of Andersen and co-workers and the combined technique allows us to treat all phases on equal footing. To treat itinerant magnetism we have employed for the local spin density approximation (LSDA) the Vosko-Wilk-Nusair parameterization". [Pg.14]

In order to perform the calculation., of the conductivity shown here we first performed a calculation of the electronic structure of the material using first-principles techniques. The problem of many electrons interacting with each other was treated in a mean field approximation using the Local Spin Density Approximation (LSDA) which has been shown to be quite accurate for determining electronic densities and interatomic distances and forces. It is also known to reliably describe the magnetic structure of transition metal systems. [Pg.274]

The muffin-tin potential around each atom in the unit cell has been calculated in the framework of the Local-Spin-Density-Approximation using the ASW method. The ASW method uses the atomic sphere approximation (ASA), i.e. for each atom a sphere radius is chosen such that the sum of the volumes of all the overlapping spheres equals the unit cell volume. The calculation yields the expected ferromagnetic coupling between Cr and Ni. From the self-consistent spin polarized DOS, partial and total magnetic moment per formula unit can be computed. The calculated total magnetic moment is 5.2 pg in agreement with the experimental value (5.3 0.1 e calculations presented here have been performed... [Pg.463]

Using local spin density functional (LSDF) theory, we obtain 70 kcal/mole for the rotational barrier of the ethylene molecule (35). In these calculations, we use the equivalent of a double-zeta+polarization basis set, i.e. for C two 2s functions. [Pg.57]

Geometry optimization was performed on the discrete cluster unit to eliminate the effects of crystal packing and interactions with titanium ions. The calculations were carried out in local spin density approximation using a SPARTAN 5.0.3 package (Wavefanction, Inc., Irvine, CA 92612 USA). [Pg.104]

We define the spin-displacement density function, q(z, Z), so that the density of spins - the number of spins divided by the voxel volume - that have displacements between Z and Z + dZ in a voxel at z is q(z, Z)dZ. The density function q(z, Z) can be expressed in terms of local spin density p(z) and the normalized displacement distribution function P(z, Z) ... [Pg.370]

This is a very drastic approximation since, after all, the density in our actual system is certainly anything but constant and does not even come close to the situation characteristic of the uniform electron gas. As a consequence, one might wonder whether results obtained with such a crude model will be of any value at all. Somewhat surprisingly then, experience tells us that the local (spin) density approximation is actually not that bad, but rather deliv-... [Pg.90]
